This wallpaper captures the urban essence that proliferated the art of Ghost in the Shell in every incarnation of the series. Phill does an amazing job of capturing a moment of surrealism.
While there are a few, stray building angles and shadows, you find that your eye forgives the minor details and instead focuses on the overall scene that is larger than life, with lights trailing off into infinity.
"This one really caught my eye when I first saw this posted. The yellow and red color combination is not often used but you pulled it off well. And the vectoring is well done and that heart just is just as nice! But it does looks a bit odd because of the red out line instead of the ususal black. But that's how the rules are and I don't mind that. Overall, a great wallpaper!" View

"I have seen this scan used many times before with the same stuff to the background. But your really blew them right out of the water. I mean the use of clouds and the vector brushes aren't something I don't see with this type of concept. And the super clean vectoring and soft details, this really caught my eye when I saw the highlighted. A unique and completly orginal wallpaper that deserves a favorite from me and, most likely, many, many other members." View

"Very cool wall! Well this is one concept I don't see very often. I mean the vector with the wooden wall is very well vectored and that 'hello' sticker. Nice addition! Yes this is going into my favorites!" View

"I agree with Yina, this really caught my eye when I first came back here! I mean the randomness of the sahapes and colors are nice and fun. Reminds me of a pop art, a style wich I'm trying to understand >.< The vectoring are nice and clean and the good use of the patterns. Great job on this fun and cheerful wall!!" View

"You have a great concept here. I really like the colors you sued but I have to agree with MinstrelKnight about the jagged edges and the quality of the wall. Other than that, this is a unique wall but it would have been better if the quality was good and the jagged edges were fixed." View

"To tell the truth...despite geing a fan of grunge, I liked the textureless version much better because it gives a nice clean look to the wall. And the darker spots of the texture are a but distracting like the part on Cloud's arm. And the lighting blur for the text is distracting to me as well. The wall is ironic that the scan looks like the cover of Brokeback Mountain but the wall is good." View

"This wall really cought my eye the moment I came back online!! THis wall has a romantic yet mysterious feel to it. The red and yellow/gold is a nice combination. The vector work is great but I agree what tate said earlier that some spots are jagged, but of no concern. And your credit and signature is different but it doesn't bother me at all. Overall great job on this wall but I wish it could have been on a higher resolution. But it's becoming my fave!" View

"I like this one a bit more than your last OZ wall maybe because of your use of some color to the vector. And speaking of the vector work...I must say that despite all the time you spend on the work, it was very well worth it. And leaving the background a sepia color is a good choice because if you added any other deatils to it, it would probably take away the beauty of your vector work. Overall this is a suberb work and its going on my desktop and favorites list. Great job!! " View

"That's a long essay on how you pulled this off. But it really paid off. I mean the vectoring is nicely done and the most of all I really liked how you done the gradients for the building. And how you done the perpective effect on the logo is a nice touch. Overall, this is a well done wall!!" View

"I agree with most of the poters. The shadowing is wery well done and it gives it more depth and emotion. The feathers are a nice touch as well like they are looking at an angel. But I think the scan should be vectored for a clean look. Overall, this is a great concept. Great wall." View

Well for one the vector is nicely done. and the yellow stars are fitting for the wallpaper but i say they should have vatiety of rotations and disorts because it looks like it's one repeated and changes in size. besides that, this is a simple yet nice wallpaper. Good job!" View
